Selling Replica Items

What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? WA

Hello, one of my good buddies was wanting me to look around and see what legal advice I could get for his questions. He was wondering whether it is illegal or not to sell replica items online if he is clearly stating that it is not an authentic item and that it is indeed a replica item.

Can you (your friend) afford to defend the lawsuit that will follow?

uhm I'm not sure. Is that a way of saying that it is illegal to sell such items, even if you make clear that it is a replica?

That would be a fair statement.

alright thanks for the advice. I'll tell my friend, I wouldn't want him to get in legal trouble because of something like that
